Jungle exp nerfs are great

Maybe top lane will actually matter now that 1 player cant just invalidate the laning phase just by existing (jungle).

Cant wait to win my 1v1, get ahead and then start bullying out the jungle whos 3 levels behind me, finally some agency, they should have done this sooner top laners are supposed to be the big bullies/duelists of the early game, junglers should be SCARED of walking top side, but what was happening was the other way around, the junglers were walking top for free gold due to how overpowered they were, not anymore hopefully.

Now i will actually be able to use my lead to invade and shut down junglers like eve or kha zix before they get out of control, its going to be amazing.

I mean, as someone who plays Jungle quite often...this just means that I'm going to be prioritizing top-lane even more since they have a higher chance to carry the game out. So instead of botlane always being a fiesta, it's probably going to be toplane from here on out.

Yup. same.

The are nerfing shared XP and stated full stop that bot lane will level slower. It will be infinitely more valuable for me to try to shut down Top and mid if nothing else to draw enemy jungle there and leech enemy solo laners xp.

Riot has doubled down on the terrible jungle design yet again while calling it something else.

Unfortunately overpowered, omnipresent junglers will be ganking top lane even more and I doubt the EXP decrease will be enough.

Junglers need to go back to being ward bots from Season 1, only sociopaths play that role anyway and the entire game is too dependent on your jungler being good (highest % autofill vs main win rate difference).

As long as there is red smite in its current iteration the top laners will never be safe from OP junglers who have ignite AND exhaust on a single summoner spell.

Oh, and now they have new ways to gank us (sneak into top lane bush, and then gank through the lane pocket)

Do you realize that you will be ganked more often now that jungle camps exp are even more meaningless? Now you can freely say that you won't be able to 1 vs 1 in top lane.

If they do that with less exp then they are goign to be lvl 6~7 while im 10, i can easily 1v2 double kill if im ahead at that point.

As it should be.

I don't think they will be that far behind. Riot makes sure junglers aren't in front of laners in terms of levels but they won't allow junglers to be that many levels behind laners. It's common sense.

So, if you want to believe something as absurd as that, it is your choice but what is really going to happen next patch is junglers camping top lane more effectively and more often.

I can't wait for laners to continue to bitch at me while losing their lanes and then having a top/mid lane 3 levels ahead of me invade my jungle and doing nothing to stop it.
